balenaSense v2: Updated temperature, pressure, and humidity monitoring for Raspberry Pi

Howdy Alan,

I mean just create the device, boot it up where it’s detected by the console and starts updating something there (it just says “updating” as far I can see) and then when it’s done I restart without having made any changes like password or dashboards, and it does reboot promptly but at this point I no longer get sensor data. The log says it’s timing out.

If I re-image and have the device discovered, and let it update however it’s doing that, and never restart it will continue to work properly. Does that help? The image I don’t think is the problem- I think it’s to do with whatever updates occur once a new device is brought online. I have repeated this a few times and am getting a consistent problem, before I set about making any changes.

Does that make sense and help at all?

Cheers,

Scott

Hello Scott,

I just provisioned a Pi 3B+ with balenaSense and it seems to be working ok. I want to see if I can reproduce what you are describing. When you say “restart” are you referring to rebooting the device, power cycling, or selecting “restart services?” Once the initial updating is complete and the software is running, there should not be any further updates (unless you are “pushing” the software again.)
